When you stretch your faith, God wants you to experience five things. Don't let the wrong things lead you astray in life. Live your life with the assurance that God is in control. Extend your faith and see what God has in store for you.


Supernatural energy.

(1 Corinthians 12:1-2, AMP)

You have to stop allowing the wrong things to lead you.

Understand what the idols in your life are.

Idolatry worships the creature rather than the Creator. Idolatry worships pleasures more than pleasing God.

Loving pleasures more than pleasing God keeps you from producing fruit in your life and eliminates the power of God in your life. (Luke 8:14, NKJV; 2 Timothy 3:4-5, NKJV)
Supernatural power. (Colossians 1:29, AMP)

Instead of living in fear, you live a life understanding and believing through faith. When you stretch your faith, you have a new lifestyle to life. (2 Corinthians 5:17, NKJV)
Supernatural answer to prayers.

(Judges 15:18-19, AMP)

As Samson stretched his faith, God stretched his prayers.

If you’re not trying to do something great for God, why should He supernaturally answer your prayers? (2 Chronicles 16:9, NKJV, Psalm 31:19, NLT2)
Supernatural happiness while hurting.

(Matthew 5:9-12, AMP)

Until you learn to see hurt as part of God’s plan to bring happiness in your life, you will never fully experience the happiness God has for you. Stretch your faith so that others know you love Jesus in such a way that it does not matter what others think or say. (Matthew 10:32-34, NKJV)
Dare to dream big.

(Ephesians 3:20-21, NKJV, Ecclesiastes 3:11, NKJV)Dream spiritually.
Dream financially. (Deuteronomy 8:18, NKJV; Ecclesiastes 2:24-26, 3:12-13 NKJV)
Dream for your family.
Dream for your health.
Dream emotionally.

Abandoned Louisiana - The Pirate's Cove Water Park / Resort in Iowa

Image
 About ten minutes east of the city of Lake Charles are the remains of an abandoned water park . The decaying structures are clearly visible from the busy I-10 freeway and for years drivers have wondered about it's history and why it was left for dead.   The Pirate's Cove Water Park actually has a rather interesting story behind it. A story that has been repeated over and over again, unfortunately, here in Louisiana. It's just another example of how government bureaucracy in this state killed an enterprise before it could ever get off the ground. Construction on the park began in 2008 and it was scheduled to open sometime in 2010. The sprawling complex was envisioned as an oasis from the hot summer heat that would feature luxurious amenities like a 900 foot long lazy river, a giant splash pad for the kids and eventually a five star hotel. The Pirate's Cove would have been an obvious tourist destination that could have brought much needed tax dollars and employment oppo...

Abandoned Louisiana - The Old Hightower Family Home in Dodson

Image
I have to admit that I have been hanging on to these photos for a couple of months now just looking for the right minute to post them. Back in November I was traveling up to El Dorado, Arkansas and I passed through the small town of Dodson. While driving through town my eyes spotted a very attractive old house up on a hill and I just had to stop and take a few photos of it. I honestly don't know the history of this house, but I'm sure some local will send me message telling me all about it (and someone did see the UPDATE ), and it's not as cool as an abandoned railroad locomotive or old movie house but it really spoke to me. I have to wonder about the people who used to live in it and how it ended up in the state it is now. Anyone can see that it was a beautiful house long ago. What happened? How did such a grand residence end up like this? Those are questions that I can't answer unfortunately.  Unfortunately a site like this isn't all that uncommon here in Louisian...
